The CTF Approach.

We work with brands and stakeholders in three ways

Infinitee tag

Certification

The 'Infinitee' mark is a certification mark for recyclable clothing, registered with both the UKIPO and EUIPO, carrying legal protection across the UK and all 27 EU member states. When a garment bears the Infinitee™ mark, it provides third-party assurance that it meets the real-world requirements of fibre-to-fibre recycling.

Workshops and training

Training

We deliver interactive workshops and deep-dive programmes that equip brands, retailers and suppliers with the knowledge to embed Design for Recyclability (DfR) at the product development stage.

Industry collaboration

Industry Collaboration

We bridge the gap between brands and textile-to-textile recyclers - aligning the whole value chain so that circular design principles translate into commercially viable recycling at scale.

An independent standard you can trust.

CTF operates as an independent certifier.
Our standards are set entirely by recyclers.

Unlike the brands we certify, we have no stake in whether a product is sold or how well it performs in market.

Our certification fees fund the work of standard-setting and verification, but the standards themselves are developed in direct collaboration with Europe's leading textile-to-textile recyclers, ensuring every garment awarded the 'Infinitee' mark meets the real-world requirements of textile recycling at scale, not just a theoretical benchmark.
